Bumble's Bridge Pickup Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I think it's still an exceptional album. The unique overproduced style, the complex song arrangements that still flow pretty naturally, and ofc the guitar and Axl's vocals make it great. Some of the songs are mixed inconsistently and have maybe a bit too much going on at times though.To me, it's kinda irrelevant that it took 14 years to make, because I only first heard GN'R in the summer of 2008 and was like, "cool, this band is releasing a new album this fall!"

dalsh327 Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Remember, the album is too complex for the average music listener to comprehend.Shit I remember when people would say that. The other classic was that in a few years when the album had a chance to settle in, it would be seen as a great masterpiece. Presumably It would take a few years as people's minds were not advanced enough in 2008 and it would take several years to fully comprehend the albums genius.The comments from the band about the unreleased stuff being too advanced for the audience is pretty insulting. Same comments about ChiDem were said about VHIII. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phaeryen Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I decided not to buy this album, because it felt rushed, wrong, and unfinished. so why would I buy it for someone I love? as a test of some kind? no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Satanisk_Slakt Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I must admit that I'd actually pay for it if it didn't cost more than two dollars here. The cheapest I've seen it for here is 99 SEK, which is like 15 dollars and it's just not worth that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tr420 Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Didnt we all do that already back when it came out? So do they all need a second copy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Jesus Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 I know it's early, but all this talk about politics in America has got me pumped enough to want to start a movement. Possibly a tradition. The world needs more Chinese Democracy, and I just want to see a show of hands of people that will join in and buy Chinese Democracy for their loved ones this coming holiday season. Who's in on this?Go to best buy, I guess It is a cheap gift that actually has some kick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
